So I just built my first gaming computer about a week ago, and I'm wondering what should I upgrade next once I get spending money. I do know I really need to upgrade my ram, but what else? btw I only have 2 fans in my PC ATM. One for the cpu and one case fan. I believe there is space for 2 more fans. Anyway, specs below.

Operating System
Windows 10 Home 64-bit
CPU
AMD Ryzen 5 1500X 40 °C
14nm Technology
RAM
8.00GB Single-Channel Unknown @ 1197MHz (16-16-16-39)
Motherboard
Micro-Star International Co. Ltd B350 TOMAHAWK (MS-7A34) (AM4) 48 °C
Graphics
ZOWIE XL LCD (1920x1080@144Hz)
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 (EVGA) 55 °C
Storage
232GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB (SSD) 45 °C
 
well one question i need answered is does it get hot while idle and gaming? i think the inclusion of another fan would be a good first step.
you need more ram first and foremost
after that upgrade you could upgrade your gpu, i might suggest a gtx 1070 or 1080.

my computer isn't really hot idle but when gaming yes it does get hot, probably bc my room is usually hot, and doesn't a 980 cost more than a 1070?
